Chapter 661: Second Chance - Part 2

The coronation ceremony was so simple. Tang Shaoyang was brought to the sacred tree, and there was a platform in front of the Sacred Tree of The Elven. Of course, the ceremony started with a prayer where The Elven would pray to the Sacred Tree. Tang Shaoyang was curious about what made this tree different from the other trees, but he did not find anything extraordinary aside from its size.
Tang Shaoyang activated [Basic Detection], and it told him the name of the tree. Sacred Tree was the name of the tree, but the tree was not a living thing. He observed the tree with the Dragon Eye and found out the mana density around the Sacred Tree was thicker than the other places. Aside from that, he could not find something special about the tree. In the end, it was just a regular tree in his eye.
After the prayer, Tang Shaoyang was invited to the platform. There were three seats on the platform. The seat was more like a throne, and two thrones were on the same height level, while a throne was higher behind the two thrones. Revalor had briefed Tang Shaoyang on what he should do, so everything went smoothly.
The father and son welcomed Tang Shaoyang onto the platform before they went to the thrones. The father took the left throne, and the son took the right throne. Tang Shaoyang took the throne that was higher than the two thrones behind the father and son. After he sat there, the Elven started to sing. The pleasant tone entered his ears, and he enjoyed the song.
The song lasted for around ten minutes, and after the song finished, it was for the final moment. Tang Shaoyang got up from the throne and walked between the two thrones where the father and the son sat. He turned toward the father and used both hands; he lifted the crown on Revalor's head. He then put the crown on top of Virion's head.
That was his only duty in this coronation. After that, Tang Shaoyang walked back to his throne and sat there. Virion then stood up from his seat and turned around, and he knelt toward Tang Shaoyang and the Sacred Tree. The new Elven King made his vow to lead the Elven Kingdom. The vow was not that long; it only took a minute for Virion to finish his vow before he returned to the throne.
Cheers and claps resounded after that. However, Revalor did not look cheerful or happy as his people. He looked pensive and disturbed.
Tang Shaoyang got up from his seat and said, "I think my job is done here." He did not know what to do with the Elven crowd. It was not like they were cheering for him but their new king. "I will leave first, and you two can have fun celebrating this with your people." After saying that, he got off the platform.
Revalor came to his son and whispered. "Can you entertain Lord Tang? I need to talk with your aunt." Virion was maintaining his smile as he waved his hand toward his people. After hearing that from his father, he knew what his father wanted to do. His father wanted to cover up for his brother.
"I don't think we should cover up what Arbane did, Father. I think it will be much better for us to hand over Arbane's head to Lord Tang. That way, we can avoid future trouble." Virion voiced his thoughts.

"No! How can you do that to your second brother!?" Revalor was shocked to hear that came from his first son. Virion stopped waving and turned toward his father. "I am now The Elven King, so I have to prioritize my people over my family. Isn't that what you say to me?"
Revalor's eyes widened for a moment, but he was still adamant about saving his second son. "No, we can still save Arbane and also maintain a good relationship with Lord Tang. I will take care of it, and you just need to give me some time!"
"If you insist, father." Virion nodded his head. "But I warn you. If that's not possible to save Arbane, I will not hesitate to speak out about Arbane." After saying that, Arbane waved his hand at his people and followed after Tang Shaoyang.
Tang Shaoyang shook his head as he walked off the platform. He did not know what made the father and the son think that he could not hear their conversation. Everything was clear in his ears, what they were talking about. 'Brother? Arbane? Alton did say that The Elven King Revalor has two sons.'
Tang Shaoyang let the Elven play their game. He followed their plan by following Virion as the latter said about the progress of conquering Gigante Forest. Yes, during the three days before the coronation. They were not idle as they followed Alton's plan to send a representative group to the remaining tribes in the forest.
Meanwhile, at the other side of the Elven Territory, Revalor managed to have a separate meeting with Aleesa. "Can you convince Sylvia not to speak about Arbane?" That was the first thing that came up from Revalor.
Aleesa let out a sigh as she knew her brother-in-law would come to her. "I don't think so, Brother. Just so you know, Arbane almost killed her." She shook her head. "Furthermore, I think it will be much better if we confess honestly in front of my husband. I haven't talked a lot with him, but I think he is reasonable to talk with."
"NO!" Revalor opposed the idea strongly. "Did you forget why we call him The Tyrant?"
"Everything about him is false. He did not and never ate the beastmen. He always asked the tribe he attacked to surrender instead of slaughtering them. Everything you heard about him is wrong." Aleesa shook her head. "Also, have you seen the surrendered tribes? They were not tortured or forced to join the military, all of them were well-fed and living under the roof! I advise you to confess and hand over Arbane instead. You can ask for forgiveness, but we have to punish Arbane too.. That way, Arbane can avoid the death penalty."
